Really enjoyed John Tottenham's debut novel Service (@ProfileBooks) It's as much about retail work as it is about ambition and defending your interests, and I wrote about it for @IrishTimesCultr.

Schattenfroh & Sugar Kremlin are two of the projects targeted by the politically weaponized Trumpist NEA canceling Deep Vellum’s grant for this year. They can’t cancel literature, they can’t cancel dialogue. Donate & let’s fight this bullshit together! https://t.co/Suy95wmNoL
